Disney Crowdsources Its Own Company
I know what you’re asking: “How can you crowdsource your own company?” Well, in this case I’m referring to the fact that once a year, Disney (DIS) puts out a call for product ideas to its entire consumer products division of 12,532 employees, which includes Fashion & Home, Toys & Electronics, Food, Health & Beauty, Stationery and Publishing. That means sales, communications, and other non-inventing divisions get to participate. It’s what they call the “Big Idears” contest. For the first time, one of these ideas is coming to the mass market…

Enterprise 2.0 Flourishes When You Understand The Business Side Of The Enterprise
My point, with emphasis, is that we all need to a better job of understanding how our customers operate. Everyone needs to tell product managers that customers don’t care about your widget unless it can be tied to something larger that can transform business. It’s the classic technology silo. If your widget isn’t tied to a larger architecture that can be used to reconstruct a process, it’s just a widget that will rest on a digital shelf instead of a wooden one. (for you shrink-wrap folks)

12 Rules For Bringing 'Social' To Your Business
The social meme has now fallen prey to this and frankly it's at serious risk of losing what makes it special, at least in terms of the modern 2.0 era. All of the new uses of "social" in the online world: Social media, social marketing, software software, social networking, and so on, can be -- and often are -- extremely potent new methods for creating value with human relationships over the network. They can represent truly important, even revolutionary, new changes in the way to we interact with each other in our lives and businesses.

About failing Enterprise 2.0 initiatives
Seeing Enterprise 2.0 as a number of short-term initiatives that will immediately boost the productivity of knowledge workers, improve collaboration and fuel innovation will do us more harm than good. There are definitely quick wins to be made, but we need more time to make the large and persistent wins. Harvesting the potential business benefits of Enterprise 2.0 requires insight, motivation, commitment, patience, perseverance, flexibility - and a large doze of good old-fashioned stubbornness. Why? Because it is about making people change.

Social Networking for IT Organizations in a Recession « IT Organization Circa 2017
I’ve been thinking about a couple of things my CIO clients are wrestling with, and how these might be better approached jointly rather than as separate challenges. These are:
1. How to strengthen Business-IT Relationships in the context of the current economic climate.
2. How to experiment with, learn from and foster Social Networking in the business context (rather than the more common “Facebook-like” personal context.
3. How to sharpen and refocus the role of IT for the global recession.

How to Survive and Thrive in Business Today with Web 2.0 - Part 1 [Dion Hinchcliffe's Web 2.0 Blog]
Over the next few weeks I'll be posting a series of articles that deeply explore a strategy for using the power of Web 2.0 ideas to move businesses into the 21st century. These strategies will drive forward any organization to not only survive present economic circumstances but drive growth and innovation while transforming safely to what increasingly appears to be a generational change in the business landscape. In other words, what you've been doing in the past will often no longer apply in the future. The assumptions that we've learned in a previous generation of IT and business education and occupations are frequently mattering less and less to how we accomplish our work and live our lives.

The Content Economy: The digital company 2013 - key points

The Elements of Value Network Alliances - Deloitte LLP
Today, the number of corporate alliances continues to rise — by as much as 25 percent a year — and now accounts for nearly a third of many firms’ revenues and value. Yet some studies suggest that the failure rate of alliances stands at an incredible 60–70 percent.* This troubling statistic prompts many questions about why so many firms struggle to generate success from an "open" alliance strategy. For instance, what are the general concerns with how open-based network alliances are structured? Can the implementation of an alliance strategy be simplified? And how can alliances consistently deliver value?

Internet Evolution - Steven J. Bandrowczak - The Changing Role of the CIO
A recent survey Nortel Networks Ltd. (NYSE/Toronto: NT) completed with IDC reports that in less than five years up to 40 percent of the workforce will be hyperconnected, demanding everywhere, all-the-time communications. Not only will these individuals be emailing colleagues or using IM while on the go, they will also be tapping into social networks and online communities such as blogs, wikis, and online forums to improve business communications.

Enterprise 2.0 Startups - Know Your Market
Nowadays, very few companies are worried about hosting mission critical applications outside of their own networks. Security is less of a concern, because companies are generally comfortable with Web security. And SLAs still exist, but they’re not the predominant issue. Most companies understand that web-based / hosted applications stay up fairly well, but nothing is perfect.
But even with many of the biggest issues resolved over the last 10 years, companies are still not adopting Enterprise 2.0 at the pace you would expect. And many Enterprise 2.0 startups can’t get the traction they need.

Visual Model of Enterprise 2.0 Barriers
The final area, which seems to get most of the press, is the organizational barriers. I am still under the belief that if you nail the first two then this area will take care of itself. From this model, you could summarize that overcoming the technical and organizational barriers will deliver the 20% while overcoming the implementation barriers will deliver 80% of your success.
